Mind numbing UCF/USF drivel, et al

[Donno]

Whatever the reason, it's a good pick-up for UCF.  It will bring people in to watch and if they are winning, they may hang around for more.  Some people will come for (the real) MJ sighting....you've gotta figure he can afford to fly in for a game or two.  And finally....shoving a couple million to your son's school is pretty cool if you've got it.  It's a great deal for UCF...I'd take him in a heart beat even if I thought he was just "pretty good" for a college athlete.

Good post.  He was the MVP of his state championship team.  His coach says he may turn out to be one of the best.  He simply fell in love with our academics and facilities is what I am hearing.

Come on, enough with the academic ********!  Nobody is choosing UCF for their academics, just like they aren't choosing USF!

Agreed. I know Chalko is a major homer but nobody is choosing UCF for academics. It's a third tier school per US News & World report. Their student-to-faculty ratio is ridiculous, something like 600 students jammed into overcrowded classrooms. I doubt anyone is choosing Florida schools because of "academics," especially, with the budget cuts. Not even UF. He chose UCF because of easy playing time, his friend was already there, and facilities.

Ahhhhhhhh....so Chad  = SAD, eh?

So THAT'S where he went after leaving the UCF forum...

[Bullshutter]

chad = soft

This entire fiasco reeks of the same stench as when they signed O'Leary.  Yeah, it's a "big name" and has drawn some publicity, but big names don't always produce positive results, as O'Leary has proven.

At least Jordan won't kill anybody, though.  We hope.

UCFChad = Chalko (Auman's Blog) = Clown

Seriously, get a life, dude. We will resume our 'rivalry' in the FUTURE. For now, focus on beating a ranked team.

EI, I know the guy was dishonest but I don't think anyone seriously believes he intended to kill anyone...

Disagree.

UCF now has the 2nd largest number of National Merit Scholars in the State of FLA (ahead of every other school in FLA except UF)...and is the Top 35 nationwide in regards to National Merit Scholar Enrollment.

Oh...and the 4,300 plus students from all over the USA that applied for the 40 positions to UCF's new Medical School...well...some of them are the best of the best (i.e. $160,000 scholarship offer does ATTRACT some of the best of the best).

So while maybe a large number of people you and others know that are enrolling in USF, UCF and/or other schools for various reasons (i.e. close to home, less expensive, parents went there, received scholarships, etc...), there are people that enroll at every school that do so for "academic reasons" (including USF).
